Wow!! Well done @Jcaz6996 Impressive evolution of the indigo

Holy cow James.. These fades are impeccable. Wouldn’t have ever thought someone outside Southeast Asia could pull this off.

[Jcaz6996]

Cheers @weftyarn
i know they have the weather and humidity and those sea sand scrubs on their side lol but they don’t work as hard as me ️

Nice one @Fadez appreciate it mate

@Weiserbud cheers bud

[Jcaz6996]

@weftyarn nice one Emil …
I don’t quite get it but this is getting all the love ..

[Jcaz6996]

@Twistlock thanks pal

[pechelman]

what is that supposed to be? Did they do a "mud bath" wash when new and then just wore it?

[Cents or Non Cents]

Voted you in my top 10, GL!

[Jcaz6996]

@pechelman I honestly don’t get it .It’s just his way of life but shit me it looks disgusting. Looks like you could snap it in half its that brittle. My idea of fading anything is achieving something I’m proud of and that you continue to wear long after the competition .
Each to their own , his jeans look the same think he was in the top 10 ii Y3

[Jcaz6996]

@Cents-or-Non-Cents nice one thanks a lot

[Tago Mago]

@Jcaz6996 When I see your fades I think "wow, amazing, wish mine would look that good". When I see his I think "buy a washing machine"

@Jcaz6996

That’s jacket is done by a framer.

They work in the mud.

I have seen the video. Still raw as fuck never been wash.

Wouldn’t says it’s the best fades.

No potential at all looking at it.

That’s why I don’t do competition.

Kinda put you down.

Champion you. Know what I mean

[Cents or Non Cents]

That one, to my eyes, has more of a shock factor. I bet it doesn't look that good washed thus why they left it unwashed. Not a fan at all. I don't wanna be negative in the denim community but I did not vote for that one at all. I voted for mostly the different style of jackets/shirts plus the IH peeps.

A bit surprised I got to vote, but apparently participating in the latest Indigo Invitational grants you voting rights.

I actually thought there were a lot of excellent entries this time around. Voted for @Jcaz6996 needless to say.
Loved the 25oz Samurai chore coat.

I imagine the UES Tricotine shirts will keep selling well.

Several nice pieces from Rogue Territory.

I found the Oni chore coat very impressive, not easy to get fades (and combs) like that on softer, loose weave denim.

And that Piger Works shirt has taken a serious beating, in a good way if you ask me.

The importance of the quality of the photos became very apparent. That can really make or break your chances.

@Cents-or-Non-Cents Shock and awe? Or shock and horror?
My initial reaction was that they didn't have time to give it a wash and submit final pictures. That said, can't really blame someone for using workwear for work. Wonder what it actually looks like under all the mud. I still find it kind of cool (or perhaps fascinating is more fitting) in its own extreme way, even if it didn't make my top 10, and I must admit to feeling a certain revulsion at the thought of putting it on.

[Cents or Non Cents]

It could be either/or, to be honest @JunkPants. The fact that he wore Piger Works denim, the irony is not lost on me. The first time I saw it, I wondered if they had rolled around in mud the whole year. Wore the same denim for pants, I think, for the year, too, and, to my knowledge, has not washed either in a year. To me, that is gross. Debatable that it makes better fades but we willl see how voting comes out.

When does RR usually start up? I feel like I remember April sometime...
